"Though Burna has always subtly weaved elements of pop into his music, it feels too omnipresent in the second half of the album. Ed Sheeran makes an appearance on For My Hand, and while the two harmonise well together, the easy melody and textbook lyrics make it mawkish. The same can be said about Wild Dreams, featuring Khalid; the drab piano arrangement here quells an otherwise fruitful album".

"The African Giant is a party-loving pop genius, but he falls a little short of the gold of old on this sixth album, which still occasionally shines".

"Modern Afropop is the poster kid for good times, but with this ambitious yet flawed album, he reminds us that it can be a space to work out much messier emotions. Whatever its failings, Love, Damini paves the way for other artists in the scene to take bigger emotional risks".

"Damini Ogulu alias Burna Boy skærer i hjertet med sin dybere, rustne røst. Han er soul-flammen, der saver kærligt i vores ører på sit nye, sjette og det meste af tiden fremragende album Love, Damini ... Det er den pletvise omgang med nordamerikansk og britisk pop, men faktisk også puertoricansk reggaeton, der ikke virker for denne anmelder".
